Police say Watson beat a 19-year-old man, who was treated for facial fractures, a gash requiring 13 stitches and other cuts and bruises after the brawl at a party last month. Witnesses say Watson grabbed the man and punched him in the face because he was dancing with Watson's girlfriend.

He was later suspended from the team for allegedly violating rules on conduct.

Police say Watson was booked into the Dona Ana County Detention Center with bond set at $5,000.
